Posted on 05.11.2025

Despite a historic run from 17th to 7th place in a matter of 3 months, Gaziantep could not keep up their momentum as they fell to Ankaragucu in the quarterfinals of the Turkish TBL playoffs.

“It was a great season overall” commented OD Anosike. “We won 11 games in a row at one point, we were the league’s hottest team during the second half of the season. Although we’re disappointed that we didn’t go further, we should all be proud of what we accomplished. I want to thank Gaziantep and everyone who played a part in our success. I look forward to seeing what’s next”.

Gaziantep completed the regular season with a 19-15 record. OD Anosike completed another productive season (his 12th professional year) with formidable statistics of 9.8 points, 10.2 rebounds (first in the league) and 2.7 assists while shooting 57 percent from the floor. He is now a free agent.

Despite holding just a one point lead going into halftime, Gaziantep found a way to take control in the second half. Last night, Gaziantep secured a 79-71 victory led by OD Anosike’s 17-point, 5-rebound, 4-assist performance.

“It was a hard-fought win against a team that had nothing to lose” said Anosike. “In this league, there are no easy games. You have to be ready to play every night. We’re happy that we got the win, but we know we need to tighten up down the stretch of the season”.

Gaziantep has been one of the league’s hottest teams as of late, winning 10 out of their last 11 games. With the victory, they improve to 16-13 while Kapaklispor falls to 8-21. Gaziantep will be back in action on Saturday, March 22 in a home matchup against the league’s number one team, Trabzonspor
